Musical Fidelity HT600?


Anyone own or have experience with the Musical Fidelity HT600 five channel amplifier? I am specifically looking for observations about its sonic performance, and comparisons with other amps in the $2000-$4000 range.

It's reviewed along with the matching pre/pro in the current SGHT - you might want to check that out. -Kirk
Eyeman,I have heard it, and have been lusting after it since. It has a richness that is difficult to describe. Lush, but with all the resolution and soundstaging you can ask for. Unless you have a speaker system that needs tons of power, you would be hard pressed to beat the HT600 at any price.
Does anybody know what's up with this? I visited the Audio Advisor website a while back and it looked like they were blowing these out cheap. Went back today and could not find it anywhere on site. When I did a search, I got a price of $995, but was told that the item was no longer available. I sent them an email asking for an explanation. If I get a useful response, I'll do a follow-up posting here.

I also have been lusting after one of these and hoped to pick one up later this year. Thought about buying one when I saw the price reduction, but I am in the proces of buying a house and have to control my "discretionary" spending until I close that deal.

I have not heard one, but was prepared to try out AA's money back guarantee. The SGHT review was very favorable on the HT600, but not as strong the the preamp/processor. Certainly worth the read.

It could be that the sales territory is changing. There was a new distributor in Canada a while back (4-5 months). Try checking the MF website for reps. I have also worked with a shop in Ontario that carries MF and the owner knows the new Canadian distributor personally. Their web address is: http://www.audiotwo.com/used.html and the owner is a great guy.
The response I got from Audio Advisor is as follows: "We are out of stock at this time. We will have them back in stock in a while. We just took it off the site in the mean time." Musical Fidelity website still shows it as a current model and Audio Adviser as U.S. distributor. So, I guess this is just a temporary stocking situation. Canadian distributor may be prohibited from selling out of territory. I believe that AA can not sell MF to Canadians either.
